I hope this is just due to slow season, My hubby and I will both be very dissapointed as this is one of our main stops for spicy jerk chicken. Tictoc, I saw a calander on one of the Jamaican tourist boards that shows a calander of events and Alfreds listed a show in late December. It is a calander of events for all of Negrils restaurants/bars just not sure how accurate they are. I will try to post back with the name.

DeBus was a great place to visit during the older times and I thought it was well-managed and a vibrant environment.
When Bourbon Beach took over it seemed (at least to me) to go steadlly down hill. We had a thread awhile back where some (including me) alluded to the changing vibe and the quality of the service and the general environment surrounding the property. I have known about some questionable goings on there for a few years as I was personally familiar with the owner and some of his friends.
Places that allow "questionable locals" to supervise the runnings don't take too long before they drive away the real clientele who make a business profitable. You can't just live off the seasoned tourist who has little trouble in dealing with aggressive types, poor service and alike. You need to attract new business and to make regulars out of newbies. This is where, in my opinion, Bourbon Beach started to lose its footing and reputation until now it goes by the way of several other businesses in Negril. Perhaps a new owner with new "friends" will make a difference but if you continue to do business like the previous owner; it too will go away in time.
